Starcraft II Megathread V.1 'Hell, It's About Time' - Games

I've seen the Night-Elf reference, but where is the metroid and diablo one? Unless Diablo means the Diablo avatar you get for Collector's Edition

[QUOTE=Novangel;23704787]So there's Metroid, Diablo, dancing night elves. What else have you guys found? Gonna check stock in 2 days can't sleep.[/QUOTE] In the same map as the Metroid, there's a Tauren Marine in a tube.

I saw a tauren with an axe running into a portable toilet

I saw a custom map that played like a 4 player side-scolling beat-em up in the same vein as Double Dragon or Golden Axe. Was actually pretty cool.

I was going to order it from Amazon but of course I have to be moving house when it comes out.

[QUOTE=acds;23704478]So I finished the game, [sp]and didn't the visions tell you not to kill the Queen of Blades? Sure she technically isn't dead, but she isn't the Queen of Blades anymore. Or did they just refer to Kerrigan, be it human or Zerg, and not specifically to her Zerg form.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Apparently she can still control the Zerg in her new human dominant form but she has been severely weakened. Blizzard said the next expansion (Heart of The Swarm) is about rebuilding her abilities and regaining control of the Zerg for what I am assuming is preparation for the big showdown with the hybrids[/sp]

I saw a porta-potty that was rocketing through space on the mission w/ Nova. Also, [sp]who else on the last Zeratul mission killed at least 2,500 enemies and held out for like an hour?[/sp]

So I just got to 1500 and let myself die.

I want to see him die. Also I want to see the face of the dark voice.[/sp]

Aw man i really wish i could play this. I only have £20 at the moment

[QUOTE=LeonS;23703864]Umm, this has never had monthly fees except in Russia I believe.[/QUOTE] Yes, we even have to pay for the Singleplayer mode. Complete bullshit. I'm really fucking angry. Why are we so special? They want to stop piracy here? Looks like completely otherwise. People will start downloading the game even more now. Also, the localization here is terrible.

God, I gotta get this game!

What's the online like? Full of crazy 'APM obsessed' people?

It says i need to complete 29 missions but there are only 26... Any solution for this problem?

Go to the mission select and do the 2 alternative missions and hopefully the secret one will be made available after you redo the Korhaul one.

Well, nobody I know wants a friend code, so here is one of mine: WWHWEW-7ZPH-PYY9NZ-C74W-9H2ZM[*] Yes, I purposely left out the last character. It gives the people who don't check out this thread every minute a chance to get it. Let me know who gets it, and enjoy your 7 hours.

Ugh. I'm bad at this. I feel like every time I go up against someone 1v1 I lose. I've only won 3 out of 14 games. It's getting really bad. Any suggestions for a terran player?

I recently won 2 3v3 games with Jiggu and another friend of mine, we're awesome, though we lost one.

I wish they would make a game that would have the same amount of detail as the ingame cinematics.

Yeah I wish we have supercomputers and live in the year of 2100 too.

Holy shit, sc2 is expensive as fuck in the blizzard store. I'll buy it in store instead.

Then i get a factory+techlab,2 Starports with tech and reactor. Armory,Level ground first then air, Buy thor's and vikings. Also helions pwn zealots and zerglings. Check this link out: [url]http://sea.battle.net/sc2/en/game/unit/[/url] It tells you every units weaknesses and strengths.

Where are the maps located? I looked through the SC2 folder but found nothing.

The multiplayer community in this game seems worse. I'm winning a lot more than I used to in sc1. And I feel like only half the people I play say gg back to me.

[QUOTE=matark;23709490]The multiplayer community in this game seems worse. I'm winning a lot more than I used to in sc1. And I feel like only half the people I play say gg back to me.[/QUOTE] I've been called many horrible things after winning instead of "gg". But I just crushed someone so bad, it was awesome. Sometimes I feel bad winning, because I know how bad I rage when I lose :(

After playing for a good few hours, there's one thing I've found out. I'm very bad at this game.
